Lynn University and Jan McArt, producer and director of theatre arts program development, today announced the upcoming series of Jan McArt's New Play Readings. Under the leadership and guidance of McArt, this program develops new plays by highly acclaimed playwrights through staged readings.

A beautiful young widow refuses to give up an heirloom worth a fortune, given to her by her late husband. A retired fighter pilot is made to rethink what can be truly beautiful when a woman steps into his life. Jazz music is mixed with midlife crises and life's tempting tricks, complicating the search for 'happily ever afters.' A modern take on an old-fashioned romantic farce, where five intertwined lives wind up in a secluded New York cabin. These are the plays that comprise the 2018-19 'Jan McArt New Play Readings' series, to be presented at Boca Raton's Lynn University beginning Monday, October 22nd.
